The scientists determined the size of the earthquake by combining forces when the tsunami triggered them>
the Indian ocean earthquake of 2004 26th December measured 9.3 on the Richter scale. this earthquake was one of the most worst natural disasters in history. this was no ordinary tsunami but a mega-thrust tsunami.
the indian ocean earthquake/tsunami lasted around about 5-10 minutes in that time the whole town was brought down:(
great scientists and their inventions

A tsunami happened during the Indian Ocean tsunami in December 24 2004
It seems that scientists and doctors are still working out how much people lost their lives in the Japan Tsnami and Earthquake in 2012, on websites people are saying more than 500,000 but there isnt an exact number yet.
The earthquake having the longest recorded duration occurredunderwater, in the Indian Ocean on December 26, 2004. It lasted for 8-10 minutes (depending on the threshold applied).
In the Indian Ocean
The Thailand tsunami occurred on December 26, 2004, caused by a massive undersea earthquake. It resulted in significant devastation and loss of life not only in Thailand but also in several other countries surrounding the Indian Ocean.

The earthquake that occurred in the Indian Ocean on December 26, 2004, measured 9.1 to 9.3 on the moment magnitude scale, which is the modern equivalent of the Richter scale. This powerful earthquake triggered a massive tsunami that affected several countries around the Indian Ocean, resulting in significant loss of life and widespread destruction. It remains one of the deadliest natural disasters in history.
Indian scientists are very Bright, They recently Invented Mangalyan.
The 2004 tsunami was caused by a massive undersea earthquake with a magnitude of 9.1-9.3 off the coast of Sumatra, Indonesia. This earthquake triggered a series of devastating tsunamis that affected multiple countries bordering the Indian Ocean.
You do not mention if you are looking for a worldwide number - which would not be available - or if you are referring to a particular incident. If you are talking about the 8.1 Tasmanian earthquake, there were no deaths or tsunamis from that. The really devastating Indian Ocean earthquake and tsunami occurred on December 26, 2004. Upwards of 275,000 people died from that.
Through DNA testing, scientists have determined that the first aboriginal people in Australia originated from the Indian subcontinent. When they migrated to Australia, they arrived via a series of land bridges.
